This is a mmo ppl will blobing. If they think they have no or low chance alone or fewer.
I love the suggestion. I think the solution ist the punishment. There is a punishemnt already solo kills makes lot more rr and reward. Blob makes less reward but more chance to not get blobed. So even if not everybody do the math they just feel it “alone i take a huge risk and a high reward but the risk is too high th chance to kill somebody and dont get rekt is low so i optimalize and make my risk lower to jave chance at least some lower rewards.
The OP suggestion is perfrct is lorewise lorefriendly beacuse everybody should know if 2 or more warband on the same spot its a fantastic idea. You cannot change the player behavior but finally you can dodge the duble trible or 5 wb blob easier.
I love it.
It should be 100feet more than 48 (30?) player the opponent should see them on the map same like we see tha ram.

Re: Blobby blobby blobby
The solution is very obvious, and was presented here many times.
- Reduce RR in Warbands
- Reduce Aoe Damage and heal generaly
In the original state of the game, the renown for kills was splitted between the warband members. What lead to a situation, that warbands didnt chase solo players, or small groups. It was just not worht it, cause everyone would only get like 1-10 renown for this kill, and mess up the whole movement direction of the wb. Warband leaders even kicked people of the wb, for dismounting to chase solo players. That simple.
These days, we see desperate 50+ people chasing 1-2 players even out of the RvR lakes, just to get the 200-300 renown for everyone. I dont know how this is fun to anyone, but maybe its a me problem and im too much a dinosaur to keep playing WAR, expecting small scale fun.
Same goes for the braindead spam of AoE damage. What are people in blobs doing? How many keys do they press? Two? Three? Ae cleave + ae channel + ae dot? Or Ae hot + ae heal? After you pressed your 3 buttons, either you or the enemy blob is dead. The whole playstyle in blob situation is a mess, gameplay wise. But sitll its the most rewarding thing to do? I realy dont get it... Again, its a me problem probably. People realy seem to like it. If being a bad player is rewarded so fine, yes, no need to improve.
Give the people less reward for this kind of gameplay. And instead give more reward for a different way of gameplay. That easy it is. If people see that they get 4x more renown in a 6man, or 8x more in a 3man group, maybe that would lead to more smallscale, like it was back in the days. More smallscale would lead to more interesting fights, more fights all over the lake, higher skill lvl of players, cause they have to play their characters in their full frame of possibilities now.
The state of game right now is all about pleasing solo random players. Give them blobs, where they can join as one of 200 solos, geting max rewarded for playing in the most simple way of gameplay. Give them a matchmaker for SCs, for instant solo que pops, and protect them from groups who would force them to l2p or, god forbid, have to build an own group in a MMO! Honestly, this game becomes more and more a version that i dont like to play anymore. Many old and good players left allready over the years, and im gonna be one of them soon if there wont be any change in these basic settings of gameplay mechanics.

Most of us has problem even with assist or follow.
Office meetings works family most of us just wanna have fun with the energy what we had at the end of the day.
And even if i dont like the blob wb gameplya too much becuse its usually 4-5 gcd and you die or they die it has a feeleing the big huge blob looks like a real army a big msss and i leand to enjoyd it time to times.
The game on the very right track imo it should be focus on the majority of the olqyers. The tired old pugs like us. We dont have enrgx or time to sweaty gameplay and we are more

So, having a job and a family discourage players from using game mechanics above pressing 3 buttons? Sorry but thats ridiculous. If even follow or assist a marked leader is overcharging, then maybe the game is just too complex for you. How about playing something else, what is less demanding than a pvp-mmo? And... only because the playerbase is too lazy or too tired to play this game properly... that justifies that we ruin the game completely for everyone?
So the downgrade of a whole game is the solution? Lets not give a damn about everyone who likes to play this MMORPG as it was intended once, because the majority is fine with a downgraded version, just because they are too lazy to play it in the enhanced way that it could be played? And everyone is happy with that state, so we will increase that downgrade even more? I can only repeat myself: If we reached that point, im realy done here.

Ofc you dont understand, because you are a solo-joining blob enjoyer and solo SC quer, so you are in a 100% comfort zone for your needs.
No sir, you cant play smallscale in one 300 vs 300 zone filled with sticking warbands, and two empty zones. And no, you cant play solo there neither. Surprise.
You try to turn the thing upside-down here. I am the one who is forced to play your playstyle atm, or choose to not play at all. Because obviously you cant play smallscale when the game is in a state of perma blob. Also you cant play SC anymore with a group, cause the matchmaker only advantages solo ques.
For the renown part, just read it again, im not in the mood to explain it again since the intention behind is not that hard to get.
Re: Blobby blobby blobby
But we are the majority we always were the majority and even if we didnt you should not want to sc against undergearded underknowlege tired low energy olayers like us.kleinbuchstabe wrote: Wed Mar 04, 2026 10:04 amSuperStar wrote: Wed Mar 04, 2026 9:48 am

We have this amount of energy and we enjoy it.
You should play your style and leave the others, do not force to the others your play style imo it womt happen. Let accept the others.
And if are there 2 premades party you van fight aganist eachother if not then iam sorry but its a different era like i said new player dont wanna suffer most of old players who used to be suffering now dont want to suffer either most uf us maybe never wanted.
If you wanna try something super competitve you can play this game but dont force the others to olay the same.
You said we are lazy to dont build 6 men. From what ruin geared low lvl old/new players for why?
We enjoy the solo q every sc different new ppl to get know big fun.
I suggest you to build 2*6 premade group and you can fight aganist eachother all day long at the arena. I would do that if i would have the energy and time for it.
